OAK HILL - Two Fayetteville men are behind bars after authorities said they broke into an auto shop and made off with stolen wheels.

Jeremy J. Wriston, 30, and David Layton Ingram, 35, were arrested early Wednesday morning by the Oak Hill Police Department. Both men face several charges including breaking and entering, destruction of property, petit larceny, and conspiracy to commit a felony.

The two were taken into custody after police said Wriston admitted to the crime and blamed Ingram for coming up with the plan. The men were found in a Ford F-150 with $900 worth of wheels in the truck's bed. Officers said the tires were taken from the So-Pro Auto Shop.

Inside the store, a broken window was boarded up and a blood trail remained on the flood.
